Examples
#1 Basic Examples
Default Usage
<?php previous_image_link(); ?>
Working example
<div class="alignleft"><?php previous_image_link(); ?></div>
#2 Selecting pictures of a certain size
<?php previous_image_link( 'thumbnail' ); ?> <?php previous_image_link( 'medium' ); ?> <?php previous_image_link( 'large' ); ?> <?php previous_image_link( 'fullsize' ); ?>
#3 Defining custom image size
<?php previous_image_link( [ 50, 50 ] ); ?>
Keep in mind that if you specify a custom size, the picture will not be actually resized. The size will be set in the code and the browser will reduce/increase the original size by stretching or compressing the original image.
#4 The title of the image as the text of the link
To do this, define the first argument as false or 0.
<?php previous_image_link( false ); ?> <?php previous_image_link( 0 ); ?>
#5 Custom text as link text
To do this, set the first parameter to false and in the second parameter specify the desired link text, for example 'Previous picture':
<?php previous_image_link( false, 'Previous picture' ); ?>
